How to trap Refresh of Webbrowser ?

[Roland]

Hello All
I have s IWebBrowser pointer and with it I sinked the events of
webbrowsers.According to DISPID , I am calling event handlers. I am
able to trap Document Complete, Download Complete events. How can I
trap the event of Refresh ( When the user refreshes the current page
). Is there any DISPID associated with it ?

No, there is no special event. It is difficult to reliably catch
refresh. It does not fire the standard complement of events, only
DownloadBegin and DownloadComplete. If you get a DownloadBegin event
without any prior BeforeNavigate2, most likely a refresh has just
started.

I've seen claims that one can implement IOleCommandTarget on the client
site object, and WebBrowser will call Exec(OLECMDID_REFRESH) upon
refresh. I haven't tried it myself.

Hi,

You can trap the refresh by using the IDocHostUIHandler inteface.
It has a method called TranslateAccelerator. For a refresh (F5) this is
called with a cmdid of 6041. Return S_OK from this function to suppress the
refresh.

You can pass this interface to mshtml through the ICustomDoc interface.
This interface is obtained through a QueryInterface on the document.

Hope this helps,
